Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) steam circulation has a profound implications for the formal production. There is a lack of research on the situation when the steam injection pressure of injection well is lower than that of production well during startup stage. In this paper, the effects of diverse injection pressure difference on SAGD steam circulation and production stage are investigated by analytical modeling and numerical simulation, especially when the steam injection pressure of producer well is larger than that of injection well, and reliable results are obtained by temperature falloff test and model comparison validation. Meanwhile, in order to minimize the factors affecting the simulation accuracy, a sensitivity analysis of the temperature prediction model for the startup stage is carried out using Monte Carlo method and the finest possible mesh is used in the numerical simulation. The results show that:①The preheating results are faster and more uniform than the conventional preheating method when steam injection pressure of producer is greater than that of injector, and the subsequent production indexes are also superior to those of the conventional preheating method. ②The injected steam temperature had the greatest effect on the prediction accuracy of the analytical model; The finer the numerical simulation grid division, the lower the midpoint temperature of the horizontal well pair; ③An optimal range of injection pressure differences that achieves the best balance between preheating efficiency and thermal recovery effectiveness is achieved with <i>P</i>_prod-<i>P</i>_inj in the range of 400–500 kPa. ④The preheating method investigated in this paper minimizes the effect by unfavorable factors such as reservoir non-homogeneity, which holds the potential for more uniform, time-saving preheating and without the addition of field equipment.</p>","PeriodicalId":16723,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this concern, the LRLC pay zones of the Upper Messinian Abu Madi clastic reservoirs in the onshore Nile Delta Gas fields became a main challenge for significant exploration. This type of reservoirs, including low resistivity-low contrast zones and thin-bedded intervals, are often overlooked using the conventional petrophysical evaluation techniques, especially in the wildcat exploratory wells or highly agitated shoreline depositional environments like the Nile Delta of Egypt. These hidden low contrast reservoirs are generally challenging due to the presence of many shale intercalations/laminations and/or due to increasing the shale volume represented in the form of dispersed distribution, and the dominance of conductive clay minerals. Therefore, in this study, the expected high resistivity values of the gas-bearing reservoir intervals of the Abu Madi Formation in the onshore Begonia gas Field, as a typical case study of the LRLC reservoirs, are masked due to the relatively high shale conductivity, particularly when the thickness of these intervals is less than the vertical resolution of the utilized conventional resistivity log. To verify the LRLC phenomena of the Begonia gas Field, the obtained data was compared to the South Abu El Naga gas Field as a normal case study with a relatively high resistivity gas-bearing pay zone. To overcome the impact of the conductive clay mineral content and identify these hidden low resistivity reservoir intervals, it is necessary to integrate the conventional logging data (gamma-ray, shallow and deep resistivity, density, and neutron) with the acoustic log data including shear and compressional sonic data. In this way, a useful relationship can be established enabling the detection of these hidden LRLC reservoir intervals. This integration is based on the principle that shear waves are not influenced by the fluids types, whereas the compressional sonic waves are influenced by the reservoir fluids. However, to effectively investigate these concealed LRLC reservoir intervals, which can boost production and increase the potential reserves, it is essential to have a low water cut value. The present study represents introduces an efficient workflow, which can be extended to other similar LRLC pay zones in the Nile Delta and northeast Africa. It is also extendible to the LRLC reservoirs in similar deltaic systems having conductive minerals-bearing reservoirs or thin beds.</p>","PeriodicalId":16723,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They can either operate as barriers or facilitate the flow of fluids. To investigate this, we conducted a comprehensive study using core-plug samples, thin section petrography, high-resolution computed tomography, geochemical analysis, and petrophysical evaluation. Our findings indicate that stylolite surfaces can enhance effective porosity and connectivity by acting as open pathways. In the Fahliyan Formation, stylolites can be classified into four types based on their characteristics, including shape, size, amplitude, and the presence of insoluble material in the seams. The genetic type of stylolites is determined by the dominant stress direction, while various parameters in the burial diagenetic stage, such as pressure, temperature, and the presence of soluble ion-rich fluids, can affect porosity and permeability. Stylolites in the Fahliyan facies create continuous and connected porosity for fluid flow, with their amplitude and morphology impacting reservoir quality, especially in mud-supported facies. Therefore, the presence of stylolites in mud-supported facies can improve porosity and permeability. Dissolution, reduced overburden pressure, and horizontal compression are the main factors that expose the stylolite surfaces in the Fahliyan Formation. The extent of cementation, which is the primary barrier feature, varies significantly across the Fahliyan Reservoir in the Abadan Plain Zone due to the degree of stylolitization in the examined facies. However, our findings from wells and geological data combination indicate that reservoir quality in the examined formation facies is significantly influenced by various conditions, with a particular emphasis on the type of fluid flow in the passages.</p>","PeriodicalId":16723,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed model integrates the thermal variations to enhance the understanding of proppant dynamics under realistic field conditions. The proposed model is validated through physical experiments, demonstrating significant differences in proppant placement due to temperature- induced viscosity changes. Our results show that proppant distribution is substantially affected by lower temperatures at the fracture opening and higher temperatures at the distal end, contrasting sharply with distribution patterns observed under uniform viscosity conditions. As the temperature at the fracture opening decreases, the viscosity of the fracturing fluid increases, enhancing its capacity to transport proppant. The increased viscosity facilitates the transport of proppant deeper into the fracture, resulting in a reduction of the total amount of proppant near the fracture opening and a smaller stacking angle compared to those observed at fixed viscosities of 10, 100, and 200 mPa sThe findings offer critical insights into the mechanics of proppant flow, holding substantial theoretical and practical implications for optimizing hydraulic fracturing treatments.</p>","PeriodicalId":16723,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gas adsorption induces swelling in the coal matrix, leading to a reduction in fracture width and subsequently causing decreased permeability and reduced well production. Investigating the impact of geological characteristics of coal-rock on gas adsorption and desorption properties can enhance our understanding of the patterns governing changes in coal-layer production. This study focused on the 3^# coal seam in China's Qinshui Basin as its research subject. It involved an analysis of mineral composition, physical properties, gas content, and pore structure characteristics to explore the adsorption traits of different gases and conduct experimental studies on variations in gas adsorption and desorption capabilities under diverse conditions. The research findings suggest that the coal rock in the study area is primarily characterized by micropores and small pores, with well-developed larger pores and fractures. The pore connectivity is somewhat limited, and the predominant pore size ranges from 100 to 200 nm. The average permeability measures 0.198 × 10^–3 µm², while the mean specific gas content stands at 21.7 m³/t. Analysis of the isothermal adsorption curve reveals a substantial increase in adsorption when pressure falls below 3.5 MPa due to a steep slope; as pressure continues to rise, there is a gradual upward trend in adsorption until reaching 8 MPa, after which point adsorption increases slowly and stabilizes. Results from binary gas adsorption–desorption experiments indicate low desorption levels and rates for CO₂ components compared to relatively higher desorption amounts and rates for CH₄ components.

Therefore, it is of great significance to adopt a new microscopic research method to study the imbibition of water in micropore and nanopore spaces in tight reservoirs. In this paper, models of the quartz nanopore imbibition effect and water drive oil reservoirs are established through molecular dynamics simulation. Then, the impacts of different factors on the imbibition effect and the roles of this effect in the water drive process are investigated. The results show that the percolation rate of water in the nanopore is related to the temperature, pore size, and wettability. The permeation strength increases with increasing wettability. Warming accelerates the movement of water molecules in the system, thereby increasing the rate of osmosis, enhancing the strength of osmosis, and shortening the time needed for equilibrium. However, the total amount of osmosis remains unchanged. The smaller the pore size is, the stronger the sorption strength.

The current study employs a combination of numerical and machine learning techniques to comprehensively investigate the performance of immiscible CO₂-LSWAG injection in a sandstone reservoir. Furthermore, a detailed sensitivity analysis of various injection and reservoir parameters is conducted to gain deeper insights into their impact on the process. In order to predict the oil recovery factor (RF), the study employs 1000 experimental designs on initial oil-wet. The numerical simulation results indicate that immiscible CO₂-LSWAG injection outperforms conventional immiscible CO₂ and low salinity waterflood injection, resulting in a higher oil RF. The machine learning models of Catboost and LightGBM used in this study produced R² scores higher than 0.95 with lower errors between the predicted and actual results. This indicates that machine learning models can provide a faster and more accurate alternative to numerical simulation. The sensitivity analysis results from the machine learning model reveal that the major contributing factors to oil RF are the chemical composition of the injected water and the injection rate. In summary, this study leverages machine learning for sensitivity analysis in immiscible CO2-LSWAG performance in oil-wet sandstone reservoirs.
